Brain Science Podcast features The Myth of Alzheimer’s (Part II)

Earlier this month, Peter’s interview on the Brain Science Podcast was released. The show’s talented host, Ginger Campbell, MD, also did a shorter interview with me, and has now posted it on her sister podcast, Books and Ideas. Check out the interview by clicking here.

My interview gives an overview of medical anthropology, describes the history of Alzheimer’s, and touches on the importance of maintaining purpose and engagement at the end of life.

As I mentioned in a previous post, I highly recommend Ginger’s podcasts. She offers free audio content and transcripts from interviews with leading experts in the field, and has a real talent for making very arcane topics seem accessible.

I was thrilled with Dr. Whitehouse’s interview with Dr. Campbell. I am a long time fan of the podcast and personally acquainted with a PT in Canada who has typed out several transcripts for her, Diane Jacobs.
